Around the Remote: ‘Psych’ Closes Final Case in Series Finale

PsychSeries Finale — After eight delightfully offbeat seasons and one rousing musical episode, we must bid farewell to Shawn (James Roday) and Gus (Dule Hill). The finale, ominously titled, The Breakup, features guest appearances by Mira Sorvino and Billy Zane.

It will be followed by the Psych After Pshow, an hourlong live special in which the cast and creator Steve Franks will reminisce about the series and field questions from rabid fans, affectionately known as Psych-Os. 9 p.m. Wednesday, USA.
